Is 'Dependabot Pro' a standalone product?

No. 'Dependabot Pro' is not a named standalone product. Basic Dependabot features (security alerts, security updates, version updates) are free on all GitHub plans. Premium Dependabot features (e.g., Dependabot on Actions runners, auto-triage rules) are included in GitHub Code Security, which is part of the GitHub Advanced Security add-on. Most users associate paid Dependabot functionality with their GitHub Pro or Advanced Security subscription.

Do I still have access to Dependabot features after canceling?

Basic Dependabot alerts and version updates remain free and available on all plans even after downgrading. You lose premium features such as Dependabot on Actions runners and advanced auto-triage rules if you were on GitHub Advanced Security / Code Security. Access continues until the end of your current billing cycle.

Will I receive a refund after canceling?

GitHub does not issue prorated refunds for downgrading mid-cycle. You retain access to paid features until the end of the current billing period, after which no further charges occur. Refund exceptions require contacting GitHub Support directly.

How do I reactivate Dependabot premium features after canceling?

For GitHub Pro: go back to Settings → Billing and licensing → 'Upgrade to Pro'. For GitHub Advanced Security / Code Security: re-enable it in your organization's Settings → Billing & plans → Licensing and turn on Code Security or Secret Protection.

Will my repository data or Dependabot alerts be deleted after canceling?

No data is deleted. Your repositories, existing Dependabot alerts, and pull requests remain intact. You simply lose access to features beyond the free tier going forward.

Can I cancel GitHub Advanced Security for just one repository instead of the whole organization?

Yes. You can disable GitHub Advanced Security per-repository by going to the repository's Settings → Security & analysis and toggling off 'GitHub Advanced Security'. This removes that committer from your billable seat count on metered plans without canceling the entire organization subscription.
